Definitions
- the present invention relates to a plasma display panel (PDP) that can perform color display.
- PDP plasma display panel
- a PDP is becoming widely available as a wide screen display for a television set after the color display thereof has been succeeded in commercialization.
- One of the challenges to improve the image quality of the PDP is to enhance reproducible color range.
- an AC type PDP having three-electrode surface discharging structure is commercialized.
- This type has a pair of main electrodes for sustaining, which are arranged in parallel for each line (row) of the matrix display and also has an address electrode for each column. Division walls for preventing interruption of discharge between cells are provided in stripes.
- a surface discharging structure includes a substrate on which the pairs of main electrodes are arranged and an opposing substrate on which a fluorescent layer for color display is arranged, so that deterioration of a fluorescent layer due to an ion impact upon discharge can be reduced to obtain a longer life.
- the “reflection type” that has the fluorescent layer on the back substrate is superior to the “transparent type” that has the fluorescent layer on the front substrate concerning light emission efficiency.
- Penning gas containing neon (Ne) and a trace of xenon (Xe) (4-5%) is used as a discharging gas.
- the discharging gas radiates ultraviolet rays, which excite the fluorescent material to emit light.
- Each pixel includes three cells for red (R), green (G) and blue (B) light colors, and the ratio of the three light colors decide the display color. The amount of light emission of each cell depends on the number of discharge times per unit time.
- the conventional PDP has a problem in that the color temperature of white is low compared with other displays (especially with a CRT). The reason is that the light intensity of the blue fluorescent material is lower than the light intensities of the red and the green fluorescent materials, and that the neon as the discharging gas emits orange light.
- the thickness or the shape of the fluorescent layer can be adjusted only within the range that does not affect the discharge.
- the number of voltage pulses for the color with the minimum intensity should be maximized and the number of voltage pulses for other colors should be smaller than that. Therefore, the variable range of the light emission amount is narrowed, resulting in deterioration of the gradation reproducibility.
- the area of the fluorescent layer is selected for each color.
- stable driving is difficult since the size of the cell depends on the color, and the margin of the driving voltage is narrowed. Namely, if the size of pixel is fixed when the cells have different sizes, the cell size of at least one color becomes small compared with the cell size that is the same for three colors. Since the firing potential rises when the cell size is reduced, the voltage margin is narrowed.
- the object of the present invention is to secure the gradation reproducibility and stability of driving while optimizing the color temperature of the display color.
- the PDP includes a screen in which a plurality of cells arranged in rows and columns emits light by electric discharge between a pair of main electrodes, and each pixel of matrix display has first, second and third cells having different light colors.
- the effective area of the main electrode of the first cell is different from that of the main electrode of at least the second cell.
- the PDP includes a screen in which a plurality of cells arranged in rows and columns emits light by electric discharge between a pair of main electrodes that is covered by a dielectric layer, and each pixel of matrix display has first, second and third cells having different light colors.
- the thickness of the dielectric layer of the first cell is different from that of the dielectric layer of at least the second cell.
- the PDP includes a screen in which a plurality of cells arranged in rows and columns emits light by electric discharge between a pair of main electrodes that is covered by a dielectric layer, and each pixel of matrix display has first, second and third cells having different light colors.
- the relative dielectric constant of the dielectric layer of the first cell is different from that of the dielectric layer of at least the second cell.
- the PDP includes a screen in which a plurality of cells arranged in rows and columns emits light by electric discharge between a pair of main electrodes that extend in the same direction, and each pixel of matrix display has first, second and third cells having different light colors.
- One pair of the main electrodes is arranged for each row, a dark color layer for enhancing contrast is disposed at each boundary between neighboring rows, and the area of the dark color layer of the first cell is different from that of the dark color layer of at least the second cell.
- Concerning the first and second cells the case is included where the area of the dark color layer is zero.
- the main electrode includes a transparent conductive film and a banding metal film overlaying the transparent conductive film, and the area of the metal film of the first cell is different from that of the metal film of at least the second cell.
- the main electrode includes a transparent conductive film and a banding metal film overlaying the transparent conductive film, and the relative portion of the metal film to the transparent conductive film of the first cell is different from that of the metal film to the transparent conductive film of at least the second cell.
- At least the first cell has a light shield that makes the aperture ratio thereof different from that of the other cell.
- the main electrode includes a transparent conductive film and a banding metal film overlaying the transparent conductive film, one pair of the main electrodes is arranged for each row, a dark color layer for enhancing contrast is disposed at each boundary between neighboring rows, the area of the metal film of the first cell is different from that of the metal film of at least the second cell, and the area of the dark color layer of the first cell is different from that of the dark color layer of at least the second cell.
- division walls for partitioning the first, second and third cells are provided on a back substrate, and the amount of light shielding for each light color is set by selecting the structure of the light shielding within the range 5 microns away from the top face of the division wall in each of the first, second and third cells.

- FIG. 16 is a cross section of the principal portion of an eighth PDP in accordance with the present invention.
- FIG. 1 shows a basic structure of a first PDP in accordance with the present invention.
- the illustrated PDP 1 is an AC type color PDP with a surface discharging configuration having a pair of substrate structures 10 , 20 .
- a pair of banding main electrodes X and Y and an address electrode A cross each other.
- the main electrodes X and Y are arranged on the inner side of a glass substrate 11 that is a front substrate structure 10 .
- Each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a transparent conductive film 41 and a metal film (a bus electrode) 42 for securing conductivity.
- the metal film 42 is made up of three layers such as chromium, copper and chromium, which are laminated in the middle portion in the column direction of the transparent conductive film 41 .
- a dielectric layer 17 is provided, which has thickness of 30-50 microns.
- the surface of the dielectric layer 17 is coated with magnesia (MgO) that is a protection film 18 .
- MgO magnesia
- the address electrodes A are arranged on the inner surface of a glass substrate 21 that is a substrate of the back substrate structure 20 , and covered with a dielectric layer 24 .
- a dielectric layer 24 On the dielectric layer 24 , one division wall 29 having height of 100-200 microns (typically 150 microns) is disposed at each gap between the address electrodes A.
- the division walls 29 partition a discharging space 30 in the row direction (the horizontal direction in the screen) for each column, and define the gap size of the discharging space 30 .
- three color (R, G and B) fluorescent layers 28 R, 28 G and 28 B for color display are provided so as to cover the back inner surface including the upper portion of the address electrode A and the side of the division wall 29 .
- Discharging gas that is a mixture of neon as a main gas and xenon is filled in the discharging space 30 , and the fluorescent layers 28 R, 28 G and 28 B emit light being exited partially by ultraviolet rays radiated by the xenon gas.
- One pixel of the display includes three subpixels (units of light emitting area) arranged in the row direction. A structure in each subpixel is a cell (display element) C. Since the arrangement pattern of the division walls 29 is a stripe pattern, the portion of the discharging space 30 corresponding to each column (a column space) is continuous over the all rows. Therefore, uniform fluorescent layers 28 R, 28 G and 28 B having little bubbles can be formed by screen printing that is suitable for mass production.
- a row is a set of cells having the same position in the column direction.
- FIG. 2 is a plan view showing the shape of the main electrode.
- Each of the main electrodes X and Y includes the transparent conductive film 41 and the metal film 42 as explained above. Since the metal film 42 is completely overlapped with the transparent conductive film 41 within the screen, the shape of the transparent conductive film 41 viewed from above is also that of the main electrode X or Y.
- the main electrodes X and Y are arranged substantially in a constant pitch.
- the main electrodes X and Y except both ends of the arrangement are used for both displays of odd and even rows.
- the main electrodes X and Y of the both ends are used for a display of odd or even row.
- the structure of rectangular area defined by the division walls 29 and the metal films 42 is the cell C.
- the gap between the main electrodes in each cell C is the surface discharging gap.
- the width of the main electrodes X and Y (i.e., the width of the transparent conductive film 41 ) is not constant, but is partially wide so that the interelectrode gap d 2 in the cell C of the blue (B) light color is smaller than the interelectrode gap d 1 in the other cells.
- the effective area of the main electrode related to the sustaining is larger in the cell C of the blue light color than in the other cells. Therefore, the discharge having large current density occurs in the cell C, so that the luminous intensity increases. Since the main electrodes X and Y are formed by lithography, high accuracy patterning is possible.
- FIGS. 3A to 8 are plan views showing variations of the shape of the main electrode.
- each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a banding metal film 42 and a strip transparent conductive film 45 that is long in the column direction.
- the transparent conductive films 45 are disposed more than in other two colors, so that the effective area of the main electrode is enlarged.
- each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a banding metal film 42 and a strip transparent conductive films 45 and 46 that are long in the column direction.
- the wider transparent conductive film 46 is disposed compared with other two colors, so that the effective area of the main electrode is enlarged.
- each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a banding metal film 42 and a ladder-like transparent conductive film 17 .
- the transparent conductive film 47 has two banding portions 47 A extending in parallel in the row direction and banding portions 47 Ba and 47 Bb extending in the column direction in each column so as to link the banding portions 47 A.
- the width of the banding portion 47 Bb corresponding thereto is set wider than the banding portion 47 Ba corresponding to the cells C of the other two colors, so that the effective area of the main electrode is enlarged.
- each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a banding metal film 42 and a ladder-like transparent conductive film 48 .
- the transparent conductive film 48 has two banding portions 48 A extending in parallel in the row direction and banding portion 48 B extending in the column direction in each column so as to link the banding portions 48 A.
- the width of the banding portion 48 A is partially enlarged, so that the effective area of the main electrode is enlarged.
- each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a banding metal film 42 and a banding transparent conductive film 49 having a hole 50 .
- each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a banding metal film 42 and substantially I shaped transparent conductive films 52 and 53 . Since the main electrodes X and Y straddle two rows, the portion corresponding to one cell in the transparent conductive films 52 and 53 is substantially T-shaped. Concerning the cell C of blue light color, the portion 53 B of the transparent conductive film 53 extending in the column direction is wider than the portion extending in the column direction of the transparent conductive film 52 corresponding to the other cells C, so that the effective area of the main electrode is enlarged.
- each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a banding metal film 42 and substantially I shaped transparent conductive films 54 and 55 . Since the main electrodes X and Y straddle two rows, the portion corresponding to one cell in the transparent conductive films 54 and 55 is substantially T-shaped. Concerning the cell C of blue light color, the portion 55 A of the transparent conductive film 54 extending in the row direction is wider than the portion extending in the row direction of the transparent conductive film 54 corresponding to the other cells C, so that the effective area of the main electrode is enlarged.
- Both main electrodes X and Y do not always need the enlargement of the electrode area.
- the enlargement of the electrode area can be realized for either main electrode X or Y. This is true for any example of FIGS. 2-5 . If each of the main electrodes X and Y is cut partially in the column direction as shown in FIGS. 4A , 4 B and 5 , the surface discharge can be localized in the vicinity of the surface discharging gap, so that the resolution can be enhanced. If each of the main electrodes X and Y is shaped such that the main electrode gap is wider than the surface discharging gap d 1 periodically along the row direction as shown in FIGS.
- the arrangements of the main electrode in the above-mentioned examples are constant pitch arrangements suitable for an interlace format display such as a television set.
- the present invention is not limited thereto.
- An example of the present invention applied to the electrode arrangement in which a pair of the main electrodes X and Y is arranged for each row will be explained below.
- the metal film 42 is disposed at the middle in the width direction of the transparent conductive film 41 so that the cell structure of all rows can be uniform. On the contrary, if a pair of main electrodes X and Y is arranged for each row, the metal film 42 can be disposed at the surface discharging gap side or the opposite side thereof.
- the metal film 42 that makes up the main electrode X is disposed at the surface discharging gap side.
- the transparent conductive film 41 of the main electrode X is partially widened so as to protrude in the direction opposite to the surface discharging gap.
- the effective area of the main electrode in the cell C of the blue light color is enlarged.
- the metal film 42 of each of the main electrodes X and Y is disposed at the surface discharging gap side.
- the transparent conductive film 41 of the main electrodes X and Y is partially widened so as to protrude in the direction opposite to the surface discharging gap.
- the effective area of the main electrode in the cell C of the blue light color is enlarged.
- the shape of the transparent conductive film in the examples of FIGS. 2-5 can be applied to the examples of FIGS. 6-8 also.

- the PDP 2 also is a reflection type similar to the PDP 1 shown in FIG. 1 .
- the main electrodes X and Y include a transparent conductive film 61 and a metal film 62 .
- the main electrodes X and Y are arranged in inconstant pitch in the same manner as in FIGS. 6-8 , in which the interelectrode gap (referred to as an inverse slit) between rows is set to a value sufficiently larger than the surface discharging gap so as to prevent interference with discharge.
- Both the transparent conductive film 61 and the metal film 62 have a banding shape with a constant width, so that the effective area of the main electrodes X and Y is uniform for all cells C.
- a paint is applied to the outer surface of the glass substrate 11 of the front side (see FIG. 11 ), or a colored glass layer is formed on the inner surface of the glass substrate 11 , so that a banding dark color layer 65 is arranged on the inverse slit.
- black stripe is formed so that a whity color of the fluorescent layer 28 on the back glass substrate 21 cannot be seen through the inverse slit.
- the width of the dark color layer 65 is partially narrowed in the column of blue light color. Thus, the light shield by the dark color layer 65 is relieved in the cells C of blue light color, and the intensity therein is increased compared with other cells C.
- FIG. 10 is a cross section of the principal portion of a third PDP in accordance with the present invention.
- the PDP 3 of this example is also a surface discharge and reflection type.
- the inner surface of the front glass substrate 411 is provided with main electrodes X and Y (only main electrode X is illustrated) and a dielectric layer 417 .
- the address electrodes A and the division walls 29 are arranged on the back glass substrate 421 , and fluorescent layers 428 R, 428 G and 428 B are formed between the division walls.
- the dielectric layer 417 is thin at the portion corresponding to the cells of blue light color compared with cells of other colors. Therefore, the intensity of electric field is increased in the cells of blue light color so that the discharge is enhanced for high light intensity.
- FIG. 11 is a cross section of the principal portion of a fourth PDP in accordance with the present invention.
- the element corresponding to that in FIG. 10 is denoted by the same reference numeral.
- the inner surface of the front glass substrate 411 is provided with main electrodes X and Y (only main electrode X is illustrated) and a dielectric layer 419 .
- the address electrodes A and the division walls 29 are arranged on the back glass substrate 421 , and fluorescent layers 428 R, 428 G and 428 B are formed between the division walls.
- the portion of the dielectric layer 417 corresponding to the cells of blue light color has an embedded layer 419 a whose relative dielectric constant is larger than other portions.
- the dielectric layer 419 can be formed by printing the material of the layer 419 a in the pattern, printing the material of other portion flatly, and baking.
- FIG. 12 is a cross section showing a variation of the dielectric layer.
- a first dielectric layer 419 B is provided to the cells of red or green light colors, while a second dielectric layer 419 Ba is provided to the cells of blue light color.
- the relative dielectric constant of the dielectric layer 419 Ba is larger than that of the dielectric layer 419 B.
- the dielectric layers 419 B and 419 Ba are formed by printing each material in the pattern and baking.
- FIG. 13 is a cross section of the principal portion of a fifth PDP in accordance with the present invention.
- the PDP 5 is a reflection type in which the main electrodes X and Y for surface discharge are arranged in the constant pitch in the same way as in FIG. 1 .
- Each of the main electrodes X and Y includes a transparent conductive film 41 b having a constant width and a metal film 42 b overlayed thereon at the middle of the width.
- the utilization ratio of visible light for the cell C is adjusted by changing the width of the metal film 42 b for each light color (R, G or B).
- the width of the metal film of the cell whose relative intensity is to increase (the cell of blue color if the color temperature should be improved) is narrowed compared with other portion.
- the width of the metal film of the cell whose relative intensity is not to increase (the cell of blue color) is widened.
- the relative intensity can be adjusted without changing the line resistance of the bus conductor.
- the firing potential that is important for controlling the discharge is mainly determined by the transparent conductive film 41 b , so it cannot be any obstacle to the discharge control.
- the width Wt of the transparent conductive film 41 b is set to 275 microns
- the arrangement pitch Rp of the division wall 29 is set to 360 microns
- the width Wb 1 of the metal film 42 b of the red color cell is set to 140 microns
- the width Wb 2 of the metal film 42 b of the green color cell is set to 100 microns
- the width Wb 3 of the metal film 42 b of the blue color cell is set to 60 microns, so that the intensity of the blue color cell whose aperture ratio is increased increases by 11%, while the intensity of the red color cell whose aperture ratio is decreased decreases by 20%.
- the distance p between the portion of the metal film 42 b whose width increases or decreases and the center of the upper face of the division wall 29 can be set to a value more than 5 microns and less than one third of the arrangement pitch Rp, so that a predetermined performance can be obtained by a practical accuracy of positioning.
- FIG. 14 is a cross section of the principal portion of a sixth PDP in accordance with the present invention.
- the relative intensities of red, green and blue colors can be adjusted by selecting the position of the metal film 42 c on the transparent conductive film 41 b . In this configuration too, the problem of the firing potential cannot occur in the same way as in FIG. 13 .
- FIG. 15 is a cross section of the principal portion of a seventh PDP in accordance with the present invention.
- the PDP 7 is a reflection type in which the main electrodes X and Y for surface discharge are arranged in inconstant pitch, and include a dark color layer 65 b for light shield of the inverse slit in the same manner as in FIG. 9 .
- the utilization ratio of visible light for the cell C is adjusted by changing the width of the actual film 62 b and the width of the dark color layer 65 b for each light color (R, G or B). If the width of the dark color layer 65 b is decreased from 350 microns to 175 microns, the intensity can be increased by approximately 11%.
- the adjustment of the relative intensities by setting the width of the dark color layer 65 b that does not have electric function has more flexibility than the adjustment by the metal film.
- FIG. 16 is a cross section of the principal portion of an eighth PDP in accordance with the present invention.
- the position of the metal film 62 c on the transparent conductive film 61 is selected for adjusting the relative intensity of red, green and blue colors. In this configuration too, the problem of the firing potential cannot occur in the same way as in FIG. 13 .
- the shapes of the electrodes of the main electrode X and the main electrode Y can be asymmetric.
- FIGS. 17A and 17B are plan views of the principal portion of a ninth PDP in accordance with the present invention.

- light shielding films 73 and 74 are disposed within the area of the surface discharging gap. The adjustment of the relative intensities by the light shielding films 71 - 74 has an advantage in that the adjustment range is wide since any shielding area can be selected.
- the shape of the main electrodes X and Y formed by the photolithography process with high accuracy, the thickness of the dielectric layer that can be controlled relatively easily, or the relative dielectric constant can adjust the discharge intensity or the utilization ratio of visible light for each color independently, so that the adjustment of the light intensity can be performed with high reproducibility and high accuracy.
- intensity of blue light that is a weak point of PDPs can be securely increased, so that the color reproducible range can be enlarged and the color temperature of the white color display can be raised.
- the present invention is not limited to a reflection type surface discharge format, but can be applied to a transparent type surface discharge format or an opposed discharging format PDP too.
- the color temperature of the displayed color can be optimized while the gradation reproducibility and the stability of driving are secured.
